Forgive me Father, for I shopped again.....

ITS NOT that I’ve been buying myself to death because hello….I’m on a budget here….BUT…..I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE shopping….it’s what people do here….they go out at night and shop during the day…I’m just trying to be one with the culture…..DON’T you worry….every decision has been a very important one and a valuable purchase….and AND My Christmas shopping is almost done…I AM SO AHEAD OF THE GAME….I’m pretty excited about this…usually I am waiting till the VERY LAST minute to Christmas shop, but it’s so hard to not buy a whole country when I know the people I love would love everything that I am seeing and doing…..I can’t help but think about my everyone at home and how much I wish they were with me seeing and doing everything that I am…well….seeing and doing…..funny how these things work out….


IN WHICH CASE, life in Thess has gotten to be pretty normal for me….I’ve found my routine….it’s going to be really weird when I go home…but I know that I have learned SO MUCH and have done SO MANY AMAZING THINGS that have really shaped who I am…..I know I have changed….I’m not sure how….but I’m finally at the place I’ve been begging to be at for over a year…mostly since even my freshman year of college…..I just needed time for me….MY thinking has concluded with the fact that I’ve been looking so hard for something that I didn’t even need to be looking for…..I just needed to take some time to listen to myself and take myself out of a busy life….and just focus on me….I know that when I go home I’m just ready for life to hit me head on….I’m right where I need to be…regardless of where it is going to take me….haha sorry for the seriousness….but every now and then…seriousness is a good thing right? I certainly hope so…..so Forgive me Father…..for I shopped again….haha or something like it.


Until next time….
